4th axis rotation

Hey there!!

 

I would like to have my post output both plus & minus when rotating the B axis. For instance I have a tool doing work @ multiple rotations I don't want them all to be positive. I want to go the shortest direction. We have an Sh5000 which is fully capable of this. I am currently using a modified morifan16 post. Any suggestions out there? Thanks biggrin.gif

Sorry for the quick and dirty answer, but I wanted to respond asap.

 

I think what you want is more than a switch setting in the post. If I recall, it's built into the postblocks with logic statements.

 

I'd suggest you download mpmaster, and that should do the trick. Just in case I'll email you a haas post that does it. I can't access yoru email from this bbs, so email me at [email protected] and I will respond.
